I have GF 5900 XT from MSI and I have a big problem with bios.
I was try flesh bios with wfflash but computer freeze and I restart him.
After the restart computer I saw only black screen and nothing more.
So I use PCI VGA card and try re-flesh bios but it isnt work because
program detect error:
Could not enable the PROM pins!
I try meny bioses but always same problem.
Please help me.

I got the same problem you did. It's some sort of driver that you need to start. Go Here
and download the file. In your USB stick, create a folder called "dpmi" and unzip the contents of that zip file to it(BIN and MANIFEST folders.) Then, when booting from the USB, cd to dpmi/bin, and type "cwsdpmi -p". It should tell you it initialized a driver or something. Then nvflash should work(somewhat.) For me, it said it couldn't find an Nvidia display adapter.

I have no idea if this is just me or not. I just got two new video cards replaced by ASUS after my old ones melted, so that could be it. If anyone has any idea what to do from here, I would love you long time if you tell me. Thanks.

Thanks for goodwill. I was try flash bios with other Mainboard. After flash bios I restart PC and when my computer boot up the card was good. Before I has ECS K7S6a :shadedshu and now I have MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum . I dont have problem with my graphic card.
If anybody have this problem try flash bios in the other mainboard and use nvflash program. I hope that manual can help with your problem.
BTW sorry for bad english.

I have a slight problem.. I flashed my video card bios (from x850Pro to an x850XT) from a bootable CD.. I followed all the instructions, and it only showed up as 12 rendering pipelines still. My card is a vivo. That's not the main problem though.. after trying to redo it, I tried that empty.bin bios file and rebooted.. BIG MISTAKE. The damn site should tell people not to do that. I was stupid on that part. Now I don't get video to come up on my screen using the video card.. I'm using a backup GeForce 2mx.. I might see if I can find my old old voodoo 3 PCI somewhere... I may not still have it. Is there a way to get it back to normal? Yes I have my old bios on the bootable CD as bios dump.bin (shows up as bios_dum.bin in DOS). I tried flashing the bios just using a blank screen and going by what i remember and all that. Still no luck.. so could anyone help me?

I'm not sure if I entirely understand what your problem is, but if it's a BIOS error in your graphics card, and you can't make a CD boot to flash it, then try the Ultimate Boot CD. It boots up fine, and includes a ton of programs you can use to fix problems in your computer. You can simply use an ISO editor to add your BIOS editing program and the BIOS image to it(try to put it in the FreeDOS folder). Then, start up FreeDOS off the CD and you can navigate to the folder containing the BIOS editing utility and the image, and flash the BIOS from there. If this ISN'T what you needed to know, then at least I tried. Good luck with whatever your problem is.

My problem was I rebooted after i flashed my bios with the empty.bin file. No video came up at all. Luckily I found my old voodoo3 PCI to reflash my ati card bios with the original bios. It's all fine now.

Now I can't figure out why whenever I try to flash my ATI X850Pro with the x850XT bios with the modified flashrom program even, it doesn't unlock the other 4 pipelines. Can someone help me? My card is an AGP, and it's an ATI brand.

I have a Sapphire X1300 non-pro(256MB/128bit) graphic adapter. I found a new bios on Sapphire site. I got Winflash, and i tried to use it to update my bios. When I run Winflash, it says that my screend will go blank for a few settings, i confirm, and after, my computer freeze, and Winflash doesn`t start; i need to restart my computer. What may be the problem. Please help me with an ideea or some software support. I mention that Lavasys software shows OK my vga card, it shows even the bios version and type, without any problem.

can i flash the bios on a on-board video? my mobo has on-board g-force video.
i've been looking at installing a video card to boost up the graphics, but if i can peap up the video on the mobo that might be another option.

Use an old PCI card to boot your system while your AGP card with the corrupted BIOS is still installed. Your system should initialize the PCI card first. If this does not happen, remove the AGP card and turn the computer on with only the PCI card, go to your BIOS Setup and change the "Init Display First" option to "PCI". Now reinstall the AGP card. Your system should boot normally with the PCI card as primary display adapter. You can now re-flash the corrupted BIOS or use another one. Make sure you are flashing the right card by using the -i (ati) or -a (nvidia) command line option.................................

I tried this method, but my computer is recognizing the AGP Card as primary. When I start up my computer with the AGP Card in the slot the fan on the card is working fine, but no graphics. My keyboard flashes green lights. I've even booted the computer with the floppy in the A drive which contains the flashrom and bin. Still nothing. I have several PCI cards that I tried with my AGP Card and nothing. Need Help!
